Summit clash at the Oval - After a thrashing at Chester-le-Street, Sri Lanka have roared back at Headingley, levelling the series at 1-1, with a game remaining. Next up, it is the final ODI of this series and also the final game of England's home summer of 2026. Given what we have seen so far, it should be a cracking contest down south in London on Sunday, September 27. The 3rd ODI is set to begin at 9.30 am GMT, but as usual, you can join us sooner for the build-up as well. Until then, take care and goodbye.

Player of the Match - For his stellar knock of 121 off 100 balls, Kusal Mendis is given the award. He starts by saying that he is happy with his knock and lauds the way those around him batted as well. Kusal goes on to add that they batted well and did the basics right. Further mentions that he was happy with 320 and wanted to get anything over 300 runs. On the bowling, Kusal starts by applauding Dunith Wellalage and gives credit to Charith Asalanka for the way he bowled in the Powerplay, and also mentions that the pacers showed class at the death. He ends by saying that they are looking forward to the final game and will look to play good cricket.

The captain of England - Harry Brook says that it was a staggering game. He adds that they will go back to their drawing board and try to bounce back. He reckons that Sri Lanka got to a great start with the bat and they did well with the ball as well, so credit to them. On being asked about their performance, he says that they got to a great start with the bat but lost quick wickets and ends by saying that they are looking forward to their next game at The Oval.

The Presentation ceremony...

Skipper's day out - On Harry Brook's home ground, it was the opposition skipper who actually got the best out of himself. Kusal Mendis was the star of Sri Lanka's 321 with his eye-catching knock of 121 off 100 balls, and then he showed great grit in the way he rotated his bowlers after being put under pressure by England's openers. Tom Banton and Ben Duckett made 73 and 67 respectively, but the foundation laid by them didn't prove to be enough as the middle order let England down.

England bring about their own demise - A fourth straight ODI loss at Headingley for England, and this one will be tough to swallow. After that mammoth 143-run opening stand, the hosts were expected to ice the chase, but it didn't turn out that way. They were suddenly down to 157/3, but Jos Buttler came in and took control of the chase. Buttler seemed to be flying and got to his half-century, but had to go off with an injury. Will Jacks tried to stabilize the chase from one end, and once Rehan Ahmed got out, Jacks and Gus Atkinson decided to play the long game. However, it turned out to be a complete lack of intent and only a 4 and a 6 were hit in the entirety of the last 10 overs. England had to hurry in the last 5 overs as they required 42 for the win, but Atkinson got out and triggered a late collapse. Even Buttler came back out to bat, but after Jacks was in the 49th over, it was all over. This is something England need to rectify before next year's World Cup, and they need to stick to their power game.

Wellalage sparks the comeback - Sri Lanka were under the pump, and their pacers were all over the place, conceding boundaries at a rate of knots. However, once Dunith Wellalage came in post the first drinks break of the innings, he sent back the openers in consecutive overs and then got rid of Harry Brook for just one. The visitors still had a lot to do, but they got a lucky break when Jos Buttler had to walk off injured. The Lankans did extremely well to dry up the boundaries, and the pacers picked up wickets at the death as well to seal a fine victory. Asitha Fernando got the ball reversing again, as the likes of Eshan Malinga and Dilshan Madushanka got a couple of wickets each.

All tied up - A famous victory for Sri Lanka at Headingley, and they have taken the outcome of this ODI series into the final game. England will be gutted as they were cruising through the chase but have crumbled at the death.

A low full toss, on off, Gus Atkinson knocks it to mid on for a quick single. The fielder has a shy at the bowler's end but the ball hits Gus Atkinson's helmet as he dives to get in the crease.

Not a maiden over, but not far from it either. Dunith Wellalage ends a fine spell with figures of 10-0-49-3. This is dragged a bit short and outside off, Atkinson rocks back and slaps it to sweeper cover for one. 42 needed now off 30 balls.

44.5

दुनिथ वेल्लालागे To गस एटकिंसन

Flighted up around off, Atkinson gets a bit forward and jabs it out.

44.4

दुनिथ वेल्लालागे To गस एटकिंसन

44.3

दुनिथ वेल्लालागे To गस एटकिंसन

Looped up, on a length and around off. Atkinson pushes it with soft hands into the off side.

44.2

दुनिथ वेल्लालागे To गस एटकिंसन

Flatter and a bit fuller around off. Atkinson gets forward to defend.

44.1

दुनिथ वेल्लालागे To गस एटकिंसन

Well, well, that's missed the off stump by a whisker. On a nagging length and on off, it drifts in before landing and turning away sharply. Atkinson gets pushed back and plays across the line, getting beaten all ends up.

43.4

असिता फर्नान्डो To गस एटकिंसन

Full and on off, tailing back in. Atkinson smacks it down to long on for a single. Just a single in the over so far, from 4 deliveries.

43.3

असिता फर्नान्डो To गस एटकिंसन

Good review! A ripper of a yorker from Asitha Fernando, and this time the finger does go up. Gus Atkinson has reviewed it after a chat with Will Jacks. This is on the money from Asitha, full and straight, tails back in sharply. Atkinson tries to jam the bat down but the ball hits the left boot and rolls away to deep third. The third umpire has a look, and while zooming in, it is seen that the ball did hit Atkinson flush on the boot, but Ball Tracking shows that the ball is just missing the leg stump. The on-field decision is changed to Not Out.

43.2

असिता फर्नान्डो To गस एटकिंसन

A huge appeal for LBW, but the umpire turns it down. Probably sliding down leg, and no review is taken either. Full and straight, bowled from wider on the crease, and this one tails back in a fair bit. Atkinson looks to flick but is beaten all ends up as the ball thuds into the pads.

43.1

असिता फर्नान्डो To गस एटकिंसन

Fernando hits the deck hard, bowling it towards middle. Atkinson plays it back to the bowler.

A change from both ends, as Asitha Fernando replaces Dilshan Madushanka.

Straighter in line, looking to slide one past the gate. Atkinson lungesforward to block.

42.4

दुनिथ वेल्लालागे To विल जैक्स

Floated up on off, grips a bit. Jacks stays put and pats it down through cover-point for one more.

42.2

दुनिथ वेल्लालागे To गस एटकिंसन

Nicely flighted on off, enticing the batter to take it on. Atkinson does well to just stroke it along the turf and down to long off for a single.

42.1

दुनिथ वेल्लालागे To विल जैक्स

Tossed up around off, Jacks pushes it through mid off and milks another single.

Dunith Wellalage (8-0-42-3) is back on. His two overs could be make or break for Sri Lanka.

40.5

सचिंदु कोलमबागे To विल जैक्स

Make that five singles, and the asking rate slowly keeps creeping up. Drifted into the pads, flicked off the back foot to deep square leg for one more.

40.4

सचिंदु कोलमबागे To गस एटकिंसन

A bit fuller and on off, hit away down to long off to make it four singles in a row.

40.3

सचिंदु कोलमबागे To विल जैक्स

Probably a certain boundary saved there. On the shorter side again, and outside off, Will Jacks laces the back-foot drive towards extra cover, where Pavan Rathnayake dives to his left and gets a big hand on it. Just a single.

40.2

सचिंदु कोलमबागे To गस एटकिंसन

दुनिथ वेल्लालागे To जोस बटलर

Put down! A really difficult one, though! Full, on off, Jos Buttler chips it to the left of the bowler. Dunith Wellalage flies to that side and tries to take it with one hand but just manages to get his fingertips to it. The ball rolls towards mid off as the batters cross.

Eshan Malinga appeals and the finger goes up. Will Jacks reviews. Hits the deck hard, on middle and leg, Will Jacks looks to flick it but misses as the ball hits high on his pads. A loud appeal and the finger goes up. Will Jacks sends it upstairs straightaway. Nothing on Ultra Edge. Ball Tracking shows that the ball was going over the middle pole. The decision is overturned to NOT OUT.

DRINKS! England are 228/4 after 33 overs. They need 94 runs from 102 balls now. Jos Buttler is well set, and Will Jacks is looking to find his rhythm. Sri Lanka will have to pick quick wickets to get back into the game from here on. Let's see how it ends...

Bowled flatter around off, grips a bit. Buttler stands tall and eases it to the right of short extra cover and through mid off for one more.

सचिंदु कोलमबागे To विल जैक्स

Dragged length on middle and off, Jacks presses back and pats it down to long on for a single.

Straighter in line, drifted onto the stumps. Jacks keeps it out.

28.2

सचिंदु कोलमबागे To विल जैक्स

Flighted fuller and outside off, turning away. Jacks looks to drive with the turn, but gets it more of the outside edge towards backward point.

Will Jacks is in at number 6 for England.

28.1

सचिंदु कोलमबागे To जो रूट OUT!

OUT! CAUGHT! A wicket out of nowhere, and Sri Lanka are back in it. Sachindu Colombage tosses it up, full and wide of the off stump. Joe Root leans on and reaches for it, driving it uppishly. Pavan Rathnayake, who is close in at extra cover, leaps up and snaffles it brilliantly with both hands. This will boost Colombage's confidence a lot, especially given his expensive start. A rare low score for Root, and England lose their fourth wicket, still needing 119 runs off 131 balls.

EDGED AND FOUR! Out of the keeper's reach, and the 200 is up for England. Back of a length, in the channel, Buttler plays a loose shot away from his body and edges it wide to the right of Kusal Mendis and the ball rolls away into the deep third fence.

27.5

असिता फर्नान्डो To जोस बटलर

FOUR! Just a dab into the leg side, and Buttler has timed it a bit too well. Hard length over middle, Buttler walks inside the line and nudges it away through mid-wicket. The fielder at deep square leg is a bit sluggish to run to his left and put on the afterburners late, eventually having to put a dive in, and he spills it onto the ropes.

27.4

असिता फर्नान्डो To जोस बटलर

Slightly pitched up at 127 kph, seaming back in towards off stump. Buttler blocks it off the front foot again.

27.3

असिता फर्नान्डो To जोस बटलर

Shortish length around off, a bit slower again. Buttler gets on his toes and dabs it down to short third.

27.2

Pace off, on a good length and outside off. Buttler gets a stride out and blocks it to cover.

26.5

सचिंदु कोलमबागे To जोस बटलर

FOUR! That is a howler from Colombage. Short and a mile down leg, Buttler goes after it and manages to pull it well fine of short fine leg for a boundary. 17 off the over with a ball to go.

26.4

सचिंदु कोलमबागे To जोस बटलर

SIX! Not the cleanest of connections, but Buttler manages to clear the fence. Nicely tossed up, on off stump, inducing a false shot. Buttler ends up slicing it over the fielder at long off and picks up six more runs.

26.3

सचिंदु कोलमबागे To जोस बटलर

Full again and around off, a bit quicker too. This time Buttler can't get under it and jams it out to cover.

26.2

25.5

दुनिथ वेल्लालागे To जोस बटलर

24.5

दिलशान मदुशंका To जो रूट

Two is the call from Root, but he won't get it. Good length, angled in from outside off. Root says back and then presses forward, pushing it away to the right of deep third for a single.

दिलशान मदुशंका To जोस बटलर

Back of a length and around off, nudged down through the gully region for a single.

24.3

Wow, Dunith Wellalage has got it on a string at the moment. Held back a bit and floated up on a length around off. The ball grips and turns away. Jos Buttler has a dab at it but the ball goes past the outside edge.

Jos Buttler walks out to bat next.

23.3

दुनिथ वेल्लालागे To हैरी ब्रूक OUT!

OUT! LBW! Excellent review, and the home crowd is silenced. Dunith Wellalage bowls it a tad full and on off, and gets it to drift back in with the arm. Harry Brook gets forward to defend but the ball dips and beats the inside edge, straightening a bit as well, before crashing into the front pad. There is a big appeal for LBW, but it is turned down. Kusal Mendis seems certain and signals for a review almost immediately. The third umpire has a look, and there's no UltraEdge to begin with. Ball Tracking shows three reds and the on-field decision is overturned. England are 157/3, all three wickets courtesy of Dunith Wellalage.

22.2

दिलशान मदुशंका To हैरी ब्रूक

That's a pearler from Madushanka. Nagging length in the channel, darts back in and then straightens a touch. Harry Brook hangs back and looks to dab it away but the ball zips past the outside edge. There's half an appeal from some of the fielders for a caught behind, but there's no bat on it.

22.1

दिलशान मदुशंका To जो रूट

Full and straight, Root walks inside the line, and clips it down to deep backward square leg for one.

OUT! STUMPED! Wickets in back-to-back overs for Dunith Wellalage. Wellalage sees Tom Banton stepping out and holds it back a bit, floating it on a length and around off. The ball dips and turn away a bit. Banton is well forward and is beaten in the flight as he looks to swing it over long on, eventually ending up running past the ball. Kusal Mendis whips off the bails in a flash and both openers are now back in the dugout for England. 169 more neded off 168 balls.

दिलशान मदुशंका To टॉम बैंटन

Better length and line as well. Full of a good length, just angled across off. Banton stays back and defends it out.

1.3

दिलशान मदुशंका To टॉम बैंटन

FOUR! Too wide, and Banton actually does well to reach it. Short and wide outside off, slapped away in front of square on the off side for a boundary.

1.2

दिलशान मदुशंका To बेन डकेट

On the shorter side, sliding into the hips. Duckett tucks it down to long leg and gets off the mark with a single.

1.1

असिता फर्नान्डो To टॉम बैंटन

FOUR! Tom Banton takes full toll of the freebie and gets off the mark in style. A low full toss on the pads, heaved away to the vacant mid-wicket fence for the first boundary of the chase.

0.3

असिता फर्नान्डो To टॉम बैंटन

Full-pitched delivery, on middle and leg, clipped away straight to mid on. Uh, oh! Fernando has overstepped, and a No Ball is called. Fre Hit loading...

0.2

असिता फर्नान्डो To टॉम बैंटन

A bit fuller and closer to the off stump, shaping away. Tom Banton watchfully leaves it alone.

Excellent line this time around from Asitha. Good length, angled in from outside off, and then leaving the batter. Baton lets it through to the keeper.

WIDE! Asitha Fernando starts off with an extra, and England's chase is underway. On a good length, sliding it down the leg side. Banton leaves it alone.
